180511~ Sunrise@Sarangkot

 

18-5-2011 (第五天)

 04:00 出發由 Pokhara/樸卡拉→ Sarangkot/莎林寇

~1 小時的車程

Sarangkot 位於樸卡拉的西北方

是一條熱門登山看日出的路線

從 Sarangkot 可看到雄偉的 Annapurna 山脈和翠綠的 Phewa Lake

山頂有私人經營的瞭望台可供觀景

站在這裡可望著遙遙相對的覆雪高山

 

 

清晨的空氣特別清爽

等待早晨日出的光線

就在這層層疊疊的藍色天幕還未退却時

就記下這美麗的一刻

 

 

可見到三角的山峰： Machhapuchhrc 6993m

在右邊的一突出平頂峰：Annapuran III 7555m

 

 

I Believe I Can Fly

I Beleive I Can Touch The Sky

 

 

暸望台坐滿看日出的遊客

可見到第一線金色的霞光已漸露出 Annapurna 山脈

 

 

晨光微

淡藍色的雲霧中吐現了日出的金光

 

 

晨光破雲而出

為大地掃上金妝

 

 

一杯熱茶.....一件披肩.....坐在瞭望台上

面對旭日東昇的喜馬拉雅山脈和湖泊

才明白人生是可以如此簡單.....快樂

 

 

看罷日出

便沿山路下山乘車回酒店

I Believe I Can Fly

R.Kelly

I used to think that I could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms

If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

[Chorus:]
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly

See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me, oh

If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

[Chorus]

Hey, cause I believe in me, oh

If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

[Chorus]

Hey, if I just spread my wings
I can fly
I can fly
I can fly, hey
If I just spread my wings
I can fly
Fly-eye-eye

 

170511~ The City Center of Pokhara

 

17-5-2011

Pokhara/樸卡拉是尼泊爾最具吸引力的旅遊城市

從城市可向北眺望海拔 6977 米的魚尾峰

山峰高聳入雲霄

而市內有著名湖光山色的 Phewa Lake/翠華湖

在湖畔的城市則餐廳、工藝品店、露天茶座、旅館林立

是個一應俱全的小鎮

就讓我們在這悠閒的市中心走一趟吧

 

 

四周掛滿彩色的工藝品作招徠

 

 

買二手書的店舖

 

 

Pokhara 旅館之多可見一斑

 

 

漂亮的露天茶座

可令你有一杯咖啡的衝動

 

 

塗鴉也可這樣有吸引力

 

 

一個個推著木頭車賣小吃、生果的本地人

 

 

粟一燒

 

 

~ 1 小時的遊歷便回酒店

再到後花園走走.....看日落

 

 

從花園可觀賞群山美景

 

 

樸卡拉日落的景色是很醉人

如詩如畫

 

 

終於見到雪山

晚霞的魚尾峰

 

 

又到晚餐時間

都是在 Fulbari Resort 內

先來一個蘑菇忌廉湯

 

 

其實尼泊爾本身並沒有發展出自己特殊風味的菜餚

多是從印度烹飪的變化

再融和一些西藏飲食元素

就成了尼泊爾菜

好像過年的全盒般....豐富

 

 

第四天行程完結

Ain't No Mountain High Enough

Diana Ross

 

If you need me, call me. no matter where you are, no matter how far. just call my name. I'll be there in a hurry. on that you can depend and never worry.
(you see, my love is alive it's like a seed that only needs the thought of you to grow. so if you feel the need for company, please, my darling, let it be me. I may not be able to express the de
F the love I feel for you, but a writer put it very nicely when he was away from the one he loved. he said down and wrote these words:)

No wind, (no wind) no rain, (no rain)
Nor winter's cold
Can stop me, babe (oh, babe) baby (baby)
If you're my goal

No wind, no rain,
Can stop me, babe
If you wanna go

I know, I know you must follow the sun
Wherever it leads
But remember
If you should fall short of your desires
Remember life holds for you one guarantee
You'll always have me

And if you should miss my love
One of these old days
If you should ever miss the arms
That used to hold you so close, or the lips
That used to touch you so tenderly
Just remember what I told you
The day I set you free

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (say it again)
Ain't no river wild enough
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (say it again)
Ain't no river wild enough
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Nothing can keep me
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough (one more time)
Ain't no river wild enough (say it again)
To keep me from you

Ain't no mountain high enough
Nothing can keep me
To keep me from you

 

170511~ Phewa Lake@Pokhara

 

17-5-2011

Pokhara/樸卡拉在尼泊爾語中是『湖』的意思

這裡周圍有很多湖

第二大湖便是 Phewa Lake/翠華湖/泊費娃湖

天氣晴朗更可以看到喜瑪拉雅山脈

特別是聖峰~  Fish Tail/魚尾峰的倒影

 

 

我們與導遊僱了一船伕遊湖

翠華湖被陽光照成碧綠色

無風無浪.....平靜如鏡的湖面

就開始我們這旅程的悠然泛舟遊

 

 

隨情的尼泊爾人

 

 

我們在小木艇上享受城市裡久違了的清幽

此刻簡直是天上人間

 

 

在雪山之下

享受了最豐潤的湖水

旅程中一次清純的接觸

 

 

目的地是湖心島

先上岸觀看魚尾峰及到瓦拉喜金廟

 

 

Barahi Temple/瓦拉喜金廟

印度教寺廟

金色的小廟供奉著瓦拉喜神

是當地居民的信仰中心

 

 

天氣不大好

還下著毛毛雨

可惜是看不清楚魚尾峰及 Annapurna 群山

 

 

四周太寧靜

實在不想打擾湖水的安憩

聽歌罷...Moon River,wider than a mile

 

 

再上小木艇回對岸的 Pokhara City Center

 

 

我愛這寫意的泛舟湖上

Moon River

Andy Williams

 

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me

(moon river, wider than a mile
(I'm crossin' you in style some day

Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
